Enteridium lycoperdon

Reticularia lycoperdon, the false puffball, is one of the more conspicuous species of slime mould or Myxogastria, typically seen in its reproductive phase as a white 'swelling' on standing dead trees in the spring, or on large pieces of fallen wood. Alder (Alnus glutinosa) is a common host.
